Michigan football coach Jim Harbaugh speaks to the media Oct. 9, 2017, leading up to the Wolverines' game vs. Indiana.

Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh says John O'Korn will still be the team's starter going forward, won't rule Wilton Speight out for the season

Michigan will not have a new quarterback Saturday afternoon at Indiana.

It'll be fifth-year senior John O'Korn.

O'Korn, who went 16 of 35 for 198 yards and 3 interceptions in a rain-soaked loss to Michigan State last Saturday, will be the starter when the Wolverines visit the Hoosiers.

"Yes," Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh said when asked if O'Korn would start this week. "We'll go through it, we'll make corrections, we'll make improvements and we'll move on."

With Wilton Speight out indefinitely with a neck injury, O'Korn served as Michigan's starter last week. Redshirt freshman Brandon Peters was the primary backup while true freshman Dylan McCaffrey is the team's third-stringer.

Speaking of Speight, Harbaugh was not ready to declare the fourth-year junior out for the season. He once again said Speight will miss "multiple weeks."

During the ABC broadcast of the game on Saturday, play-by-play man Chris Fowler said Speight would likely miss the rest of the season due to three fractured vertebrae in his neck.

Harbaugh confirmed the nature of the injury.

But wouldn't rule Speight out for good.

"(He'll miss) multiple weeks," Harbaugh said. "I don't know that he'll be out for the year."

O'Korn -- who has made two starts at Michigan after transferring to the school from Houston before the 2015 campaign -- is now 35 of 62 for 505 yards, 1 touchdown and 4 interceptions in three appearances this season.

Michigan's team passer rating (119.98) now ranks No. 98 nationally as the Wolverines' four combined touchdown passes between O'Korn and Speight are tied with Rutgers for the second-lowest total in the Big Ten.

O'Korn will face an Indiana passing defense that has allowed 205.4 yards per game this season. The Hoosiers did allow quarterbacks to eclipse the 300-yard mark in Big Ten losses to both Ohio State and Penn State.
